Great design, but...functionally, the shoutcast stations work only haphazardly. I could live with that as I dont listen to the radio all that much - minus only 1 star. But crucially, the alarm stopped working after a couple of weeks. No idea why. No change in my routine. It simply stopped sounding the alarm. Minus 3 stars for that. I was late for work twice. Cant have that. Would love to see this design work. Sadly, it doesnt.

Alarm stopped working
Best App
Cant say Ive tried every clock radio app, but I have been using this one for several years on a dedicated iPad. Very reliable on WiFi and if internet goes out it defaults to its built in sound. Shoutcast Radio station choices from around the world including sports and local CBS and NPR stations. Also several different wake up times can be set and turned on and off. Only down sides, some stations dont work and I have tired it on my iPhone while in hotels on LTE but it doesnt seem to play radio stations when the alarm goes off while on LTE. Also needs an obvious sleep button. I think it might have one but I havent figured it out. Something like after a certain time stay on for x amount of time, but this doesnt seem to be a sleep button since it seems to work as sleep if you pick a night time hour, but if it is set in the morning it determines how much longer the radio stays on after it reaches the time to turn off automatically(two hours), so I guess it might be a sleep button but it appears to be for a set time every night and for those who dont go to bed the same time every night it is problematic. This is a "very good" app (4.5 stars), and would be a perfect five statrs if: 1. A sleep button set to last for a certain amount of time that can be turned on (or off) anytime 2. Radio stations that work over LTE as well as WiFi 3. No radio stations that dont work
Doesnt work
If you set the alarm for 2 minutes from now to test it, it works. If you set it 8 hours from now (even if you leave the screen on) it isnt going to go off in the morning. Really bad app.
Nice Idea but alarm doesnt work
This app is good for listening to radio stations but the alarm feature is intermittent at best. Sometimes it goes off but more often than not, it doesnt. Certainly not reliable if you have to get up at a particular time.
A Wonderful Radio Clock & Alarm App!
This is a great app, easy to add the station, just press & hold the radio button,alarms wake me to my radio station.
Works great on my iPhone6!
Looks modern & so easy to use. There are 9 buttons to program my favorite stations & my library! Very fast support.
Basic features missing
1. add shuffle for library. 2. add next-previous buttons 3. add song list appearance somewhere 4. add gestures for next-previous etc. 5. let us customize clock color etc. 6. show moon phase always 7. make a better use of the screen area. 8. add option to remove that stupid useless alarm, and make space for more radio stations. 9. let us customize background wallpaper/text
